I keep noticing new irregularities in the hood. I know cats get on the hood, but I did not think they weighed enough to dent it

I liked the build of our Saturn wagon wayyyy better. That is, its resistance to dents. Actually it was a nice tight car, but the Dealership s are too proprietary and my dealer was an hour away, so we sold it. We then got a Vibe which dented easy and the paint scratched when you looked at it funny Funny thing is, I think the HHR shares that paint disease

It doesn't help that I just scratched up the fog light area real bad pulling forward into a curb.
I pulled to an area away from parked cars to avoid side dents and then scraped up the paint really bad on the lower bumper. So for a week now I've been disgusted with the car because I'm a putz.
Ya see how it works?
Ya know how it works.
Pogo: We have met the emnimy and it is us"

I cannot imagine why anyone would lower an HHR for a daily driver. The roads are just full of peril enough for an HHR of normal stature!

 

Mine has its fair share of dents but they are all from deserving blows that the car has taken, I got the dent removal plan with the dealership I just need to call the guys to come fix it.

 

Just keep them out of the hail. 4,800 dollars damage. but other new cars in the same parking lot got as bad. the plastic was not damaged.

 

Had an acorn fall from the tree and it left a small dent in the roof above the drivers door.

 

wow, i've been listeneing to the acorns hit the roof of our house for a couple weeks now, never thought about them hitting the car.....luckily, i have been parking out from underneath of the oak trees because of the bird droppings.........guess i should thanks the birds for saving on dents

 

got a tiny dent on my hood after I installed my intake and it wouldn't close normally

it does seem kinda thin...I just know my wife is gonna give it the old hip bump or close the hatch the wrong way...I've almost given up on my poor chevy...

 

I've only had my HHR about a 5-6 weeks and i already have a couple small dents on the driver side door. I get upset when I look at it. They're not very big, but I know they're there. Also had a big truck kick up some gravel on the freeway the other day. One rock dinged the hood and took some paint off. I need to get some touch up paint this weekend.

 

my b-n-law had a new toyota truck a few yrs back and set a champaign bottle on the hood whish dented it in about a 1/4 inch about a foot wide radius but we popped the hood and gave it the ol palm tap and it popped right back out!!?? so it isnt just chevy usin thin metal!! But yes they do dent easy in my opinoin

 

Why don't all of you drive your cars to NC and I will take your dents out (for a little cash) and we will all be happy!!! Acorns will make a car look just like hail hit it. I've repaired a bunch of them.
